Screenshots of In-game Microtransaction Store
|
I'd like to suggest organizing the microtransactions somehow both on the website and in game. If you look at the second screenshot, you have Lightning Weapon Effect at the very top followed by 3 helmet effects and then finally Extra Gore Weapon Effect. It's not organized alphabetically, it's not by price point and it's certainly not by item type.
I find this to be extremely annoying. |

" You're not the only one, those microtransactions are going to be added in tomorrows patch. The anger aura skull thing was already shown in a video. |
|
" Well as you both know I am waiting for a MTX for either Freezing Pulse or Lighting Arrow, you remember, they are only the 2 most popular skills in the game. But as we all know GGG can't be expected to chase FOTM builds so I understand why there have been no MTX for these skills just yet. Facedesk. |

I do like the store and i like to support you (over 350$ now) but the prices are way way way overpriced to the point where i start to dislike it.
I like cosmetic effects, i like to pimp my characters and my transactions show that + a regal and divine pack so lets get it out of the way that i am not a cheap C* I am leveling a sparker so i want: Lightning Footprints: 175 Lighning weapon: 270 Total cost: 445 points Total $ cost: 45$ FOURTYFIVEDOLLAR for 2 effects, you guys for real :) Just saying i love the game, i love to you support you but these prices are taking a piss literally. Ofc i am going to get both effects and ofc i will spend more but 45$ for 2 effects... that's almost the price of a new game in many genres. Sometimes quantity sales will pay off more, especially when most gamers are not the richest people around. edit// and even exalted now ^^ Last edited by roetetoet#5335 on Sep 5, 2013, 11:29:21 AM

" It's true, they need to make a type organization in there, but I think that it's not something really necesary right now... I mean how many weapon effects do you buy a day?, and is a good marketing strategy, you're looking for a Weapon Effect and to look a good helmet effect so you buy both, but then in two weeks you have a new microtransaction that you wouldn't be able to buy because you buy an extra Helmet Effect that in the first place you was not looking for so you want that new microtransaction so bad that eventually buy more coins because of a simple extra buy that you made unconscious and by coincidence.

" Oh I missed that the Anger Aura =( It looks like a helm effect that would be great, I didn't see the video because everytime that i read the forums and news i'm at work and i dont have firewall permissions to see Youtube... I mean... I dont have a "legal" way to do it lol! Indestructible, determination that is incorruptible

11695 Gold Points, rich bastard. :D ;)
I'm not addicted to Micro Transactions but if people like this BlingBling stuff, they should buy it. (Even if most of it just looks ridiculous). But I also support GGG and spent money for extra stash tabs, the only useful transaction imho. I just wish that GGG would spent the effort they put into the micro transaction stuff also in the optimizing and improving of the game (Performance is one of the bigger issues at the moment) . It feels like 90% of GGG work onto the transactions and only 10% on the rest of PoE. |

" The other option would be to say "Imbues a piece of headgear with the illusion of an iron maiden's head." I actually like this phrasing a bit better; the language is a bit more fantasy-themed (illusion instead of appearance), and it also preserves the "Imbues X with Y" wording that all the item effects have. I originally wrote it with 'an' in place of 'the', but that does tend to imply there are multiple possibilities. I'm not sure which I like better, but the way I wrote it above is probably closest to the actual behavior. A similar construct would improve the description for Skull Hood. Some of the other more physical headgear effects also feel awkward, but not as bad as these two currently are. |
